Resident Evil fans losing their minds over surprise RE9 teaser
Each of us will have a list of games we're desperate to see announced. For me, The Last of Us Part III easily tops that list, but for you horror lovers, I'm imagining it's Resident Evil 9 that you're craving. Technically, Resident Evil 9 has been announced, although it hasn't received anything in the way of a full reveal. Instead, Capcom simply confirmed its existence in July of last year. The latest instalment is believed to star both Leon S. Kennedy and Jill Valentine as playable protagonists which sounds pretty dang exciting, although I urge you to take this information with a pinch of salt for now. It's been four years since the last mainline instalment in the franchise, Resident Evil Village, landed - that's not including remakes. Interestingly, four years split Village and the previous mainline instalment, Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, so it stands to reason that Resi 9 could drop anytime now. Capcom seems to be gearing up for a full reveal, unveiling a classic teaser eagle-eyed fans have recently spotted. Horror fans will adore the new film. In previous years, Capcom has teased its next Resi instalment via the use of roman numerals - and that is once again the case when it comes to Resi 9. A video was recently launched to celebrate Resident Evil 4 Remake reaching 10 million players. Partway through the video, a peculiar street sign could be seen featuring a number of wooden panels. The most observant of fans noticed that from the right angle, these panels formed the shape IX, roman numerals for the number nine.エージェントの皆様へ感謝の気持ちを込めて記念映像をご用意いたしました。ぜひ音付きでお楽しみください。Attention all agents,We've prepared a special video to express our gratitude to all of you, which we hope you'll enjoy (with sound ON)!RE4 Dev Team — Capcom Dev 1 (@dev1_official) April 25, 2025 Could a reveal take place during this summer's Summer Games Fest or Gamescom's Opening Night Live? Will Capcom simply drop a trailer, or perhaps let it air during a State of Play? It's all very possible, and fans are hyped that a new era is almost upon us. 'Definitely about that time. Capcom now is your chance to bring back Jill or Claire or any other forgotten main characters,' wrote Reddit user Vorstar92. 'I hope it will be classic third person view,' added Kiboune. Of course, as soon as the game is revealed, we'll bring you the latest news.

Resident Evil 9 officially teased in new video
Resident Evil 9 fans believe Capcom has just teased its next entry in the iconic survival horror series. In July 2024, Capcom announced that Resident Evil 9 is currently in development, though its full title hasn't been officially announced. I assume it will likely be called Resident Evil with a subheading of sorts. Check out the Resident Evil 4 trailer below! At this time, we've had to rely on rumours for information regarding Resident Evil 9, with many claiming that it will star both Leon S. Kennedy and Jill Valentine as playable characters. If this happens, it would be a first for the video game series. As we've seen with Resident Evil 7: Biohazard and Resident Evil Village, Capcom likes to hide a Roman numeral somewhere in the title during marketing, and Resident Evil 9 will likely be no exception. With that in mind, during a short video from Capcom thanking fans for making the 2023 Resident Evil 4 remake the fastest game in the series to achieve 10 million sales, fans believe that Resident Evil 9 may have been teased. During the opening moments of Resident Evil 4, when Leon first wanders into the village, players encounter a bonfire with a wooden cross burning. This is where fans believe Resident Evil 9 has been teased. As brought to our attention by Dusk Golem (thanks, Reddit), when rotated 90 degrees clockwise, the Roman numeral for nine has seemingly been edited into the wooden cross in the bonfire. The number nine does not feature in the game at this location. エージェントの皆様へ感謝の気持ちを込めて記念映像をご用意いたしました。ぜひ音付きでお楽しみください。Attention all agents,We've prepared a special video to express our gratitude to all of you, which we hope you'll enjoy (with sound ON)!RE4 Dev Team — Capcom Dev 1 (@dev1_official) April 25, 2025So Capcom has gone out of its way to make this edit, and for that reason, it's easy to understand why so many fans believe this is a cheeky tease for Resident Evil 9. We've not had an official update on the development progress of Resident Evil 9 since its vague announcement last year, so hopefully, Capcom is gearing up to reveal more in the coming months. As always, we'll keep you posted when Capcom drops the official details on the next entry in its Resident Evil series.
